My Computer Screen Looks Weird - Help Please - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Suddenly everything on my computer is vertical instead of horizontal. My comuter froze. When I brought it back up that's when it came up like that. I tried shuting it down again and bringing it back u, but it didn't help. I had to get on the other computer just to get online and ask.

Anyone know? Thanks.

My computer at work did that exact same thing last week. I had to have someone from IT come and fix it. They said a kid had messed around with it. I don't know how to fix it though, but it had something to do with screen adjustments. I hope you get it figured out.

Are you keeping little Sis out of your room? Gotta keep your eye on that one. I hate to say this Jenny.

I found the answer! Hit Control+Alt+ one of the arrow keys (probably the up arrow from what you've described)

I tried it myself and flipped my screen in a variety of directions.

Now I can see how one of my students ended up doing this to my computer at work.

^Thank You! I tried that and it worked. I'm glad it could be fixed easily. I was worried it might be something bad.
